The transverse abdominal island flap for breast reconstruction. A 7-year experience
Abstract
Reported herein is a 7-year experience with autogenous tissue breast reconstruction. Current refinements in the use of the transverse abdominal island flap are detailed. In addition, there is discussion of guidelines in patient selection, perioperative management, and occurrence and prevention of complications.
